Hi folks,
We've a web portal, built using MVC 2.0, .Net framework 4.0 that is in production. Strangely sometimes it starts slowing down to intolerable levels. Basically it is a flight booking portal that uses ajax for obtaining search results.
Sometimes the ajax request shows stalled in the chrome browser for very long duraction e.g. 5 minutes and the results appear after a long time (say 9 minutes).
We tried to investigate this and found below things:
1. Chrome browser shows the request stuck for long durations.
2. The same request in IIS shows sc-win32-status as 64, sc-status as 200 and sc-substatus as 0. and the time-taken value is normal. sc-win32-status 64 means The specified network name is no longer available
3. After some time, say 8 minutes chrome gets the results and renders it on screen, on IIS server logs we see a duplicate hit at this time with sc-win32-status as 0, sc-status as 200 and sc-substatus as 0. If we count the time lapse between these two hits it is same as what it takes to show results for the browser.
4. We've been unable to replicate this issue on firefox so far, the issue appears on both IE as well as chrome.
Per investigations we found the same behaviour outlines at
David Klein's Corner: ASP.NET double-postback bug strikes again![
^] that says if the html has a blank entry for src for image tag then a phantom postback occurs and it was an issue with chrome. So far we did not find such issues with our html.
Has anyone encountered this issue? Does img src blank tag still triggers a phantom postback from chrome because as per investigations it was corrected on firefox but I am unable to find out information regarding whether it was fixed on chrome/IE or not.
Your valuable inputs in this regard shall be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
What I have tried:
Tried checking the html constructed from the page that has any img tag with src as blank but did not find anything. Also did not find any script or any other tag with src as blank.
